Rush reported that California was “late” submitting their numbers and therefore weren’t included in the report. This was not mentioned in the Forbes article.
This always makes me wonder why the Republicans don’t use the word “recession” to frame the economic argument, instead of saying “this is the slowest economic recovery ever.”
You just know if the incumbent was a Republican, the whole nation would repeatedly be told that we’re in a recession. As it is, I think most Americans probably still think we’re still in a recession. Certainly feels like it.
Excellent article — takes us through all the relevant actualfigures.
Thanks for posting it.
